The Crit #6: Digital Tumescent
Andrés Reisinger's digital Tangled chair, part of his recently auctioned The Shipping collection.
Looking for the latest analysis and news from the world of design and architecture? We're happy to report that ‘Digital tumescent’, the sixth episode of The Crit, is now available to scratch that itch!
The episode sees the team discuss the announcement of curatorial redundancies and major institutional restructuring at the V&A; the life and times of Paul Crutzen, the late meteorologist and atmospheric chemist who won the Nobel Prize for his work on ozone, and who popularised the term “the anthropocene”; Andrés Reisinger's radical digital furniture that is racking up huge sales at auction; Amazon's sheepish rebrand after its new app logo raised some unfortunate resonances; and the digital push for #Multiform, a mode of architecture championed as what comes after postmodernism.
